I know this forum is for glockers but I have the chance to trade my Gen3 G19 for a HK USP compact 9. Does anyone carry one and whats your take on HK Usp for ccw? I have Carried my glock for years now and need a change. Thanks for all feedback and suggestions. The HK is used but at 80-90%.

Here you go: This quiz will help you decide if you really want an H&K

1. Do I want a hammer fired carry pistol?

NO - get a Glock, XD, S&W M&P, Walther

YES - go to next question

2. Do I want an all metal hammer fired pistol?

ALL METAL - get a 1911, SIG, Beretta, CZ, 3rd GEN Smith

NO, I WANT POLYMER - Congrats! You want an H&K

Decide on model and whether you want the DA/SA, SA, or LEM trigger system. A bit tongue in cheek, but true.

The USPc carries about the same as a G19. Perhaps just a little easier. Especially if you are running LEM with no control lever. If you can routinely carry a G19 size pistol you will have no problem physically carrying the USPc. You will just have to decide if you like the type of trigger actions available to you. I like LEM.

If you can swing it, I suggest you purchase the H&K and keep your Glock. if it turns out you don't like the H&K after all, you still have your G19 and keep the USPc for range use or sell it or trade it out.
